All Sri Lanka players 'safe': Sangakkara

NEW DELHI: Sri Lanka vice-captain Kumar Sangakkara said on Tuesday the entire touring squad was safe after gunmen opened fire on the team convoy in the Pakistani city of Lahore.

"There are a few injuries, but everyone is safe and all the players are out of danger," Sangakkara told an Indian news channel from Lahore.

"We are shocked, but apart from that everyone is OK."

Sri Lankan officials said seven players and an assistant coach were hurt during the attack which took place when the team was making its way to the Gaddafi stadium for the third day's play in the second Test against Pakistan.
